Profile of Army of Darkness

Army of Darkness can be described as exciting, humorous, and stylized. The plot revolves around time travel, an imaginary kingdom, and chases. Its comic aspect comes from silly humor. Army of Darkness's main genres are comedy, action, and horror. In approach, it is fantastical. The storytelling is fast paced. Army of Darkness takes place in the middle ages. The movie has received attention for being critically acclaimed. It is well suited for teens and a boys' night. Note that Army of Darkness involves profanity and violent content.

Summary of Army of Darkness

Unassuming store clerk Ash (Bruce Campbell) is time-warped into England's Dark Ages, where he must find the Necronomicon, a compendium of the black arts, before he can return home. Fortunately, he has time to romance a beautiful princess and battle an army of skeletons. This is the inspired sequel to EVIL DEAD and EVIL DEAD 2.
